It’s still cold and none of the snow or ice is wanting to melt in these temperatures.
So, to avoid going stir-crazy I bundled up and wandered around with my camera
in the -11 degree sunny weather (ok,,, partly cloudy) and ended up having a beer
in the new “de Prael” brewery (brouwerij)

Hehe ) maybe the rat was from hell, but these 2 pieces of graffiti have nothing to do with hell’s angels.
High was a “well known” amsterdam graffiti writer, …Artik still lives, but is not riding his bike.

Hey Markus,
Thanks for the info, I have updated the post. Let me know if you have any more info regarding street artists. As you can see, I’m trying to document as much of it as I can.
